Since the dawn of time, anons from far and wide have come to /sci/ to post their IQ and take autism tests. The best and brightest of these pseuds have come together and put forth 23 of their finest memes and beloved scientists to represent them in the 4chan Cup. Over 10 years after the team's founding, the /sci/entists are looking to put their Ph.D's to use and sperg their way into the history books, and after many trials and tribulations the team had achieved victory in the 2023 Autumn Babby Cup. So put down that CS book and get ready to do some real science, brainlet.

2023 Autumn Babby Cup: The Miracle Run
As the Babby approached, /sci/ was drawn into Group F with /x/, /a/ and /n/. On the weekend before Halloween /sci/ faced an /x/ that was running a midfield heavy illegal formation, despite this /sci/ managed to get on the board shortly after kick off, as Shinichi scored the first goal at the 7 minute mark. Things looked to be going well for the /sci/entists until the attack started to seize up and fail to get into the last third of the pitch, subsequent tactical changes failed to get the offensive going again, which lead to /x/-tan running up two goals in the second half to leave /sci/ on a loss. Frustrated but determined to rectify the problems of the first game in anticipation for the next, /sci/ would face /a/ for the first time despite both teams being over a decade old. /a/ had pulled of a 7-0 massacre against /n/ and was looking to be rather strong going into the subsequent game against a /sci/ that seemed to have an anemic attack. The match started with Feynman scoring within 5 minute of kick off, yet again things seemed to be going well as the /sci/ defense was able to hold up /a/'s attack while the strikers managed to get plenty of shots off. Unfortunately for /sci/, /a/'s goalkeeper WIDE was at near peak performance and saved all of /sci/'s shots after letting one slip at the start. This trend continued into the second half despite a formation switch in an attempt to score from a different angle of attack. Yotsuba, having failed to score due to an offside call earlier on managed to make it around /sci/'s defenders and scored, defeating the Yukariposter and The Phenotype at 77' to tie up the game. Kicking off after the concession the truly bizarre happened, Boku no Pico had fouled Shinichi in the midfield. This typically warranted a free kick and maybe a yellow card, but the No Anime referee went further and handed out a red card to /a/'s offending center back, sending him off the pitch and out of the game after /a/ had used up all three of their substitutes. After the free kick had hiked the ball up the pitch, /sci/ remained unable to convert and eventually possession was lost and /a/ scored to bring the game to a 2-1 loss on 10 man abuse. After two games /sci/ was sitting on 0 points and a -2 goal differential, the team was at risk of ending up in Spring's Fetus depending on the result of the next match. /sci/'s only saving grace materialized as /n/ trashed /x/ 5-0, leaving the route open for a promotion 3 points in the event that /a/ would beat /x/ and /sci/ could eek out a win against /n/. Sunday of grip weekend came, and /sci/-/n/ would close out the group stage for the cup, /a/ had handily beat /x/ 4-1 and as such /sci/'s fate was in its own hands. The situation looked grim as WE GAAN scored for /n/ right out of the gate and /sci/ struggled for the rest of the first half Shinichi being marked by two /n/ players and unable to score, it appeared that all was lost. But after half time and a tactical change Shinichi was able to tie up the game at 54', and Feynman scored to put /sci/ ahead at 10 minutes later. Both teams switched strategies, /n/ just needing a draw to advance and at the 77 minute mark WE GAAN scored again to tie up the game. A last minute change by the /sci/ management was made to salvage the situation, and incredibly Shinichi managed to fight his way past the thick of /n/'s defense and scored at 80' to bring the game to 3-2, /sci/ immediately parked the bus in order to prevent another concession and the game ended with /sci/ victorious, James Horner's "Re-Entry & Splashdown" played the /sci/borgs out as the team had escaped a 9-3-3-3 group with the most miraculous win since the one over /diy/ in the Winter of 2015, the Knockout Round and the Winter Cup awaited them.
/sci/ was unseeded, and was matched against /vt/ at the very top of the bracket for the Round of 16. Having advanced on 7 points the /vt/umors had shown themselves rather formidable in the group stage, the team and its fans were certainly pining on going deep into the bracket. The first knockout game had begun, 20 minutes of failed attacks by both teams ended with /vt/'s Lia from Phase connect scoring deep into the box. /sci/ stayed the course and Stephen Hawking would even up the game off a rebound from Kurisu, and then at the end of a half /sci/ would pull ahead after Shinichi scored off of his own rebounded header. The second half would see many an on target shot from both /sci/ and /vt/ but good defending and clutch performances by the goalkeepers would ensure that game ended at 2-1. To start off the final day of the cup /sci/ would play /i/ in the first Quaterfinal, a very slow and possession heavy game would ensue: Mochizuki scored at 40', /i/rene responded at 51', Feynman at 67'. A rather dangerous corner kick from /i/ was avoided late in the game by the ball bouncing off one of the corner flags, relieving /sci/ of the possibility that /i/ could drag the game into extra time, as the last minutes of the game ran out. For the first time since /sci/'s initial tournament in the Spring of 2012, the team had won a quarterfinal match after having lost the previous 6 quarterfinals that it had found itself in over the course of a decade, it's biggest white whale slain. In the semifinals /ck/ stood between /sci/'s and its first ever finals appearance, the 4-5-1 that the co/ck/s were running on made made offensive play somewhat difficult, but in spite of this /sci/'s Captain, Mochizuki, pulled a brace to send the team forward the defense have not let /ck/ get a shot through for the game to conclude 2-0. /mlp/, like /sci/, had a narrow escape from their group but subsequently looked more alive in the knockouts. Having overcome both /f/ and /a/, who had 9 pointed their groups, and beating out /toy/ to face /sci/ in the Autumn's ultimate match, ecstatic to secure another title ahead their return to the elites. But as the game started it just was not to be, Hawking scored shortly after kick off and then Feynman followed up at 24'. /mlp/'s management made alterations that held up /sci/'s attack and heading into the second half /mlp/ continued with a different offensive setup, princess Twilight scoring at the 67th minute, causing concern for /sci/'s fans in the game day thread. But with some fresh legs subbed in and a minor tactical adjustment by the /sci/ management, You SHOULD be able to solve this scored with just 15 minutes left in the game to bring it up to 3-1 after missing so many of her shots throughout the cup. Despite the changes made by /mlp/ in reaction, they only enabled two more goals by Feynman and Mochizuki in the dying minutes of the game. A four medal performance had sent /mlp/ to 5PA1N as /sci/ would take its first title in what could only be described as a miracle run. From the great escape in the group stage, to the breaking of the quarterfinals curse, to going all the way with a commanding win in its first final. After so many instances of the team deserving, but falling short over the years, /sci/ finally had the good fortune to prevail over its trials to emerge as the champions.

Statistics
Main Article: /sci/ Player Statistics
Trivia
- /sci/ is one of only 2 teams to have drawn 30 or more games.
- Despite being the longest tenured keeper on the team, Stephen Hawking finished his goalkeeping career only recorded seven clean sheets in an 11 year period, averaging less than 1 per year, and his first recorded clean sheet did not come until 2017. For comparison, Thorium, the second leader in clean sheets, had a short career spanning four years averaged over 1 clean sheet per year.
- /sci/ went 10 years without promoting from a Spring Babby Cup in a way that didn't involve a scandal or a controversial decision (2012-2022), being eligible to play in 6 of them; staying within the same subject, /sci/ spent 8 years without promoting from an Autumn Babby Cup (2014-2022), although they only participated in 4 thanks to a combination of staying elite and one forfeit.
- As of the time of writing /sci/ has conceded goals in 91.1% of games played.
- In the 2023 Summer Cup, Norman Wildberger scored /sci/'s first double brace since Richard Feynman's against /diy/ in 2015
- As of October 2023, /sci/ has never won on Halloween weekend.
- /sci/ became the second team to register a four medal performance in a Final, against /mlp/, the first team that achieved this feat.

The Intellectualism Derby
A match filled with brains and boredom (specially the 10+ minute managing spaghetti at the 2013 Spring Babbies), both boards enjoy reading but /sci/ prefers books that have the purpose of understanding the universe and physics while /lit/ prefers to read made up stories that are 2deep4u. The /lit/erati see the /sci/entists as a soulless team, as for The Team of Science say they are just jelly of their 300k starting jobs in Math because they took an actual helpful God Tier Major instead of ending up on the dole because of their shit tier majors. As for 4CC matters, /lit/ has won three official matches and an old offical friendly, but /sci/ will keep on testing until they can find a scientifically proven tactic that will drive them to victory.

The Progress Bowl
Both boards want the best for humanity, although they both disagree on some aspects: /pol/ disagrees with the moral values of /sci/ and /sci/ disagrees with the ethnic cleansing proposals of /pol/. These matches are filled with air raids and nuclear testings so the happenning is now. Both boards have met three times, the first time was a 2-1 victory for the /sci/entists with goals by Richard Feynman and Dawkins, the next one was a 2-1 win for the /pol/acks in the 2012 Summer Cup friendlies. Given /pol/'s elite status and /sci/'s decline both boards had to wait one year to face each other again, this time in the 2013 Summer Cup, where both teams were already eliminated but that didn't stop them from having fun at the infamous Doompaul pitch, whereas /sci/ won 1-0 with a goal by Bill Nye to put the ball back in /sci/'s court. These teams would not face each other for nearly 4 years, this time in a complete different scenario, the 2017 Spring Babby Qualifiers, /pol/ in shambles after disastrous performances one after the other and /sci/ returning after a year of hiatus, both teams were put on a do or die situation where a draw would favor /sci/, taking into account the horrid performances by /pol/ in their new stadium, /sci/ opted to use their stadium instead of the Time Cube, this time around both teams gathered for a joint anthem to protest Bill Nye's brainlet views on gender. Richard Feynman put 2 goals that were enough to gain the draw to advance and bury /pol/ in their stadium, being buried by a Jewish scientist that scored twice on them on the same day that marked the anniversary of Hitler's suicide. The most recent matchup was in Summer 18 and saw /sci/ bury /pol/ 2-1 and staying elite at their expense, while they headed to the inferno of the babbies. /sci/ and /pol/ would meet again in Spring 22 losing to /pol/ 1-2 for the first time in an official cup match, both promoted anyway. While /sci/ normally opposes the idea of slavery, they seem content on owning /pol/.

Science vs. Engineering
An age old question that has been argued for years: Which is more useful, Science or Engineering? This derby plans to settle the debate once and for all with /sci/ and /diy/ facing each other for philanthropic dominance. The first matchup between these two boards was in the 2013 Autumn Babby Cup friendlies, on which /diy/ managed to take a win away from the /sci/entists. These two teams would not face each other (barring friendlies and invitationals where /sci/ won a game and drew the other) until the 2015 4chan Winter Cup in a decisive match where it was a situation of do or die for both teams in order to advance, /diy/ struck first with an early 2-0, but with Feynman’s once-in-a-lifetime shot, a miracle performance by CB Triple Integrals and a goal by Bosnia’s Brave Nikola Tesla made /sci/ take a trip to the knockouts and the advantage on this rivalry. They would meet again in the 2015 Autumn Babby Cup but with a strong /diy/ and a /sci/ in a do-or-die situation, things looked to be a bit lopsided… and they were, in favour of /sci/, giving the /sci/borgs their largest win recorded so far. Both teams failed to advance but at least /sci/ can still maintain the “all engineers are fags” statement as law.
